Syracuse Baketball: Boeheim's Roberson Comment Underscores Depth Issues

As you're probably well aware, Syracuse Orange coach Jim Boeheim had some harsh words for junior Tyler Roberson following the team's loss to Pitt over the weekend.

"If I had anyone else he wouldn't play a minute. Not a minute. You watched the game. I'm not going to describe what he did out there to you."

I would have written some kind of heated response on Tyler's behalf but the truth is, I didn't think it was as bad as it sounds. It seemed like textbook Old School Jim Boeheim, trying to motivate one of his players publicly.
